Jacksonville, Fla. – May 30, 2018 – Hans C. Wahl was recognized today by The Florida Bar with Board Certification in Condominium & Planned Development Law. This is the first year they have offered the certification in Condominium & Planned Development Law.
“Condominium and planned development law” is the practice of law in which an attorney serves as counsel to community associations, developers, property owners and investors; drafts governing documents and prepares planned development documents; collects past-due assessments; represents
associations and developers in litigation, arbitration and mediation matters; and assists in the planning, development, construction and financing of condominium or other planned development communities. The full definition is provided by The Florida Bar at https://www.floridabar.org/about/cert/cert-cp/ Board certification is a voluntary program for lawyers that was established in 1982 after approval by
The Florida Supreme Court, and currently administered by the Florida Bar to help the public choose a qualified lawyer. Certification is the highest level of evaluation by The Florida Bar for the skills, special knowledge, proficiency, professionalism and ethics of attorneys in the areas of law approved for
certification. By earning this recognition, Hans C. Wahl becomes the fourth Board Certified Attorney at Jimerson & Cobb, P.A.
“Each member of an association board has a lot to consider while working with community management, unit owners and renters,” commented Hans C. Wahl. “Upholding covenants and resolving disputes is one small part of a much broader responsibility. The Board Certification in Condominium &
Planned Development Law reflects the knowledge, resources and capability I bring to each situation when helping clients successfully navigate these matters.” Previously, Mr. Wahl earned his Juris Doctor from Florida Coastal School of Law, graduating magna cum laude in the top three percent of his class. He has been with the firm since 2012.
“Well-organized and proactive community associations help neighborhoods thrive,” remarked Managing Partner Charles B. Jimerson. “The starting point is choosing the right counsel. They must be vigorously committed to serving the greater good of the association with excellence. Florida Bar Board
Certification reflects this level of quality. We couldn’t be more proud of what Hans has accomplished with this achievement.” Board Certification in Condominium & Planned Development Law received final approval by unanimous ratification from The Florida Bar Board of Governors in 2015, then was approved by the Florida Supreme Court.
